Small Manufacturing.

1t is one of the great mistakes OF
the people of the South to think it
takes large capital to build up sue
cessful manufacturing enterprises.
With many the very idea of manu-
featuring is connected with spindles,
and looms and bales of cotton, and
expensive machinery. In reality the
large factories of the North and East
pay smaller per centags on the cap
ital invested than many of the small
er ones in which few industrious
men combine the few thousands, OF
even hundreds which they have saved
and carry on safe and profitable busi-
ness making shoes, or chairs, or mat
tresses, or any of the thousand articles
which find a sale in every country. A
list of the different kind of small fact
cries in the city of Philadelphia
would be almost bewildering to the
industrial residents of the average
Southern town. Philadelphia when
superseded by New York as the COM
mercial centre of the United States
would have lost her Importance as q
city but for the ease with which the
people adapted themselves to manu-
featuring. By these small manufac-
turing enterprises she has sustained
her position as city and is to-day
one of the largest manufacturing cen
tres in the Union. The South needs
more manufacturing enterprises, anc
a single one, however small, will ado
more to the wealth and prosperity O
the country than will a store or brok
erage office. Charlotte Observer.

occupied. When this was done the

occupied. When this was done the
party once more resumed their ride
and took the following route: Out
the Emmitsburg road, along Sickles'
line, to the peach orchard, thence
across the bloody wheat field to the
Devils Den, through the "Valley
of Death," along the base of Round
Top, thence by the battlefield ave
nue. along the Union line post, the
umbrella copse of trees, where Han
cock fell wounded, on by "Bloody
Angle . E'the high-water mark of
the Rebellion" past Meade's quar-
tiers, through the beautiful National
cemetery, and entered town by the
Baltimore pike, over which the I'm
ion troops retreated after the bloody
struggle of the first day.
Mrs. Pickett was the centre of
attraction on the field. She had
gathered some daises and clover
heads; member of the brigade
asked her for few. She gave them
to him with smile, and one by one
they were given away to be treasured
as mementoes. Her autograph was
also eagerly sought and she refused
no one. George Pickett showed the
watch his father carried during the
charge. 1t is medium-sized gold
one, with the Stars and Stripes and
the Stars and Bars crossed on the
lid on the inside are the names of
the battles i'll which he participated
in the Mexican war.
To say that Pickett's men are
pleased would be putting it lightly.
They are delighted with everything
and everybody. In the words Of a
Confederate soldier: owe are pleas
ed all to pieces, but Cowan this
time has captured us body and soul" "
While the band was playing a
melody of Confederate and Union
war songs as the veterans were start
ing on their ride over the field it
struck up "Yankee Doodle" In
stantly a rebel yell and Union
| cheer showed that the war song OF
their fathers above all others, had
touched a sympathetic chord in the
/ breasts of both.
| HOME AGAIN.
This evening Mrs. Pickett held a
reception at the Pickett Division
headquarters, and for an hour shook
the hand of every one presented te
her. Immediately after the recep-
ton she was serenaded by the Crane
Army of the Republic band. The
Pickett men then adjourned to tht
garden of the house where the Sixty
ninth Pennsylvania men are holding
forth. Speech-making and toas
offering were then the order unit

ON THE BATTLE FIELD.

The meeting then adjourned and
outside the building they joined in
procession with the Philadelphia
Brigade. With each Pickett man
linked arms with Philadelphian,
the line proceeded to the Eagle Ho-
tel, where the party took carriages
and started over the battle field. In
the first carriage were Mrs. General
Pickett and her son George, Mrs.
Charles Banes, wife of the command
er of the Philadelphia Brigade, and
Colonel Bachelor.
Fully one hundred carriages were
in the line, which wended its way
through the dust of the Emmitts-
burg road to the Spangler lane. Into
this they turned and proceeded past
the farm house to the rising ground
beyond. Here all alighted and then
the word went round that Mrs.
Pickett was going to hold a recep-
tion on the very ground over which
her husbands command had charg-
ed and within a few yards of the
woods under whose cover he, "a
years before, had formed his divis-
ion. The Pickett men were first
formed in line, and one by one adj
vanced and were introduced to the
wife of their old commander by Col
Clopton, of Richmond, Va, by
name, stating their regiment AMI
rank. She had word for all and
all had word for her. The Phil

cells in public prayer, and who. is
known for his ability to offer "a more
comprehensive petition than any man
in the congregation, was called upon
in the prayer meeting, Wednesday
night of last week, to lead in prayer,
and after touching variety of sub

GETTYsBURG, July 4.-Just as
the clock in the tower of the
County Court House last night
sounded the first stroke of II, the
midnight stiffness was broken by
the strains from bugle of "Way
Down Upon the Suwanee River" :"
Scarcely had its notes died away
when the members of the Philadel-
phia Brigade and Pickett's Division
began the celebration Of the Glori-
Gus Fourth with the booming of
cannon on East Cemetery Hill and
the explosion of fre-crackers in the
town. Pandemonium reigned for
one hour and half. No such noise
has disturbed this little village since
the three memorable days of '63.
Not only the citizens took part in
the celebration but those who wore
the gray as well. They joined in
the festivities with zest equal to
any, and showed, as Judge William
J. Clopton Of Richmond, promi-
nent member of Pickett's Division
said, "that we of the South take
equal Joy in the observance of the
dav with our brethren of the North.
No one at Gettysburg to-day can
forget the scenes connected with this
anniversary of the birthday of free
dom, binding still closer in the
bonds OF Union two great States,
Virginia and Pennsylvania, as well
as drawing still tig ghter the cords
which, through scenes like these, are
bringing about a complete and last
inc peace and union of our country" /"
THANKS FOR EVERYBODY.
At Z o'clock this morning, a bus
mess meeting of the Pickett Divis-
ion took place in the court room,
every man of them present. The
eloquent great-grand-son of Patrick
Henry, Col. William r. Aylett, pre-
sided, with Sergeant c. t. Loche as
Secretary. A motion that each
member contribute toward defraying
the expenses of Mrs. Pickett in com
ing here was carried with the most
hearty unanimity, and willing hands
prompted by devoted hearts, eagerly
pressed forward to contribute to th'
fund, which is ample for the pur-
pose. A motion in writing tender
ing the divisions most sincere ano
heartfelt thanks to the Philadelphi;
brigade for their kindness and hos
pitality was passed amid unbo,lndeC
enthusiasm. While the motion wa
pending, Rev. Ferguson, chaplain o
the Association, spoke briefly, say
ing among other expressions of fra
ternity, '1et them hurl all their bat
teries of love against us and we o
the South will return the same fir
every time." Similar votes of thank
were rendered to the Burgess ant
people of Gettysburg; to the othe
soldiers not of the Philadelphi
Brigade; to President Reeves anc
Secretary Loche for their endeavor
in bringing about this happy occa
sion, and also to III. G. Petty, of tn
seventeenth Virginia, for his care a
escort of Mrs. Pickett.

CHAPEL HILL, July 11.-In July
people begin to think where they
shall pass the time during the dog
days. The away down East people
like the mountains and the up coun
try people balance things by going to
Morehead. They are generally ex-
tremists and don't want want to stop
anywhere short of the mountains or
the seashore but in the last year or
two several places in middle Carolina
have begun to make a reputation as
desirable summer resorts. Among
these might be mentioned Chapel Hill
and neighboring town of Pittsboro in
Chatham. They are both old boroughs
which have been somewhat rejuvenat-
ed in the last few years by the screech
of the steam whistle. Chapel Hill
hasn't built up as fast as it was
thought it would after the completion
of the road. 1t remains to be seen
what benefit it will be to Pittsboro. c..
II. can't be called "fast" town or
booming city, yet it offers many in
ducements as Il summer resort to those
who like to get off in some out of the
way corner of the world where they
can be free from the rush and "far
away from the madding crowd" and
recuperate.
There is library with 10000 vol
umes which would make the book
worm see visions. There is also a
reading room with all the best period
icals. Both of these are open daily
except Sunday.

means transport the college grounds

sion fee he would soon be as rich as

drink that kind of stuff.
